The WAF has a relatively long history with InfoSec. A few years back, we saw the traditional architecture separated by new technologies and philosophies on the best way to detect and stop web-borne attacks. In this episode with Daniel Corbett, we'll take a deep dive into the latest on WAF capabilities, what it means to be 'next-gen' in the WAF world, and how LLM AI like ChatGPT could influence the attacks we see (and have to defend against) in the near future. Explore the rapidly-evolving landscape of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) with insights from Sophos, a pioneering MDR provider. Understand how businesses can gain superior security outcomes and better value from their investments by integrating 3rd party products natively into an adaptive ecosystem backed up by 24/7/365 threat detection, incident response and proactive threat hunting from one of the largest global providers of MDR services. Finally in the Enterprise News segment, we discuss the user-facing security trend, bad ideas in company naming/branding, and why you might not want to be on a list of the top 200 most secure companies. We also discuss the right way to treat employees when doing layoffs, and the future for companies that probably shouldn't have received funding before the market downturn. Finally, France uses AI to discover untaxed pools!
